描述
Escor 5100 is an ExxonMobil EAA resin, also known as an ethylene acrylic acid copolymer resin, designed for extrusion coating, coextrusion coating, and extrusion lamination applications.
With an acrylic acid content of 11.0 wt% and a melt index of 8.5 g/10 min, Escor 5100 provides good adhesion to polar substrates including aluminum foil, metallized films, paper, iron, steel, and glass.
It offers high bond resistance for acidic-food packaging, excellent coextrusion adhesion for polyamide structures, and strong heat-seal performance with low-temperature sealing, high seal strength, high hot tack, and good seal-through-contamination properties.

Processing Guidelines
Recommended extrusion coating temperature: 260–280°C / 500–536°F
- Avoid processing temperatures above 300°C / 572°F, as prolonged exposure may cause resin degradation.
- Use corrosion-resistant metals or suitable nickel/chrome plating for metal surfaces exposed to the molten resin.
- Feed Escor resin into the extruder after LDPE with a similar or higher melt index.
- Before shutdown, completely purge the equipment with LDPE or a suitable cleaning compound.
- Optimize air gap, line speed, coating weight, and temperature profile according to the substrate and laminate structure.
Additives and Regulatory Information
- Antiblock: No
- Slip: No
- Thermal Stabilizer: No
For information regarding potential food-contact applications and applicable requirements such as FDA, EU, or HPFB regulations, customers must review the latest supplier compliance documentation before commercial use.
